Package: spl Version: 0.7.6-1 Severity: normal Tags: patch --- Please enter the report below this line. --- The splat framework is not used by most users, and is the primary component of the spl package.
The attached patch reduces the dependency on spl from Recommends to Suggests, and moves the spl-module-parameters manual page into the spl-dkms package. It might make sense to rename spl to spl-test, mirroring the zfs-test package.
